Introducing our Community Makers; dedicated staff working in the communities of Cornwall to encourage voluntary action.

Each Community Maker is there to know and understand the network of voluntary and community groups in their area and how they can support community needs.

They also help facilitate local solutions to problems and issues through people power – galvanising communities to take action and connecting them to appropriate support.

At present, they are working on supporting the transformation of health and care services by harnessing local resources so that everyone can help play a role in maintaining or improving the health and well-being of individuals, families and communities.

We work closely with health and care colleagues on the transformation of health and care services and the creation of an integrated care system This short video, made by the Kings Fund, explains what we mean by an Integrated Care System.

Over the coming weeks, each of them will be telling you, through this site, more about what they are up to. In the meantime, you can contact them directly:
